You can check it out at &lt;a href="http://www.akubo.net" target="_blank" title="http://www.akubo.net"&gt;www.akubo.net&lt;/a&gt;.  It&amp;#39;s a simple CRM solution that is customizable yet very easy to use.  And it&amp;#39;s web-based so our staff and volunteers can access it from anywhere from any type of computer.&lt;br /&gt;

The same individual can be involved in all of these areas.  We did not find any software on the market that could handle all this at a reasonable cost, so we had a consultant  develop a specialized database for us. It has evolved over the past two years, and while it still needs some refinement, it is working.  We still need work on formatting reports and on the front end input screens.&lt;br /&gt;
